This shows how to use getdap and telnet to debug the server. These are low-level command line tools that cut to the chase when the server seems to be broken. Also note that both of these slide sets sow you how to use the bescmdln tool. the bescmdln tool is very useful for working with the BES alone - note that we used it to test the BES before we started tomcat and had Hyrax in its full form up and running.
The bescmdln tool has several options that are useful:
